Abstract
Immune tolerance promises to enhance allograft survival while reducing risks inherent to immunosuppressants. In this study, we evaluated the effect of interleukin (IL)-12p35 silenced dendritic cells (DC) combined with cyclosporine (CsA) on induction of immune tolerance in intestinal transplantation. The results showed that combination treatment with donor IL-12p35 silenced DC and a low dose of CsA (8 mg/kg) prolonged rat intestinal allograft survival. However, a higher dose of CsA (20 mg/kg) did not further prolong allograft survival.
